        Maybe the problem is it was installed in 1947 & hasn't been maintained since cause they're broke. Have you seen Cuba? It Doesn't Work!!

        I think that people who lives in the Caribbean know what 185 miles can do to any instrument even is brand new..

        So they only had one instrument in the whole country. Now they're just hoping their thermometer holds up.

        Was the wind instrument made in the 50s like most of their cars?

        Counting the feathers blown off of a chicken hardly qualifies as an "instrument".

        When you say "instrument used to measure wind", do you mean an anemometer?

        It did not make landfall at 160 mph winds. I promise it wasn't that strong....

        The gusts might have been 160 mph, but not the sustained winds (1 min avg) The official forecast gusts of 185 are what you are alluding to.
